LATE TELEGRPHIC ITEMS.
Minnesota Warehouse Act Declared Uneonstitu-
tiOnal,

tional.
The supreme court OF Minnesota rem
dered an important decision in tho case of
Berry and the Chicago, Milwaukee 4 st.
Paul railroad. Berry wanted to build a
warehouse on the right OF way OF the road
under the provisions Of the railroad and
warehouse bill OF 1885, and was
denied the privilege. He brought
suit to enforce his claim, and the case
went to supreme court on demurrer
The court now hold the provisions OF the
warehouse law that any person may ouild
a grain warehouse upon the right OF way
OF a railroad, upon the payment to the
company OF one dollar, is unconstitutional
since it takes property without Just,
compensation. The court says:
ut must be apparant that the amount OF
land to be taken does not affect the prln-
ciple. Ii the state can take any OF the
lands it can take it all; ii it can put an
other person or corporation into posses
sion OF so much OF the companys land
as is necessary to construct and MAINTAIN
an elevator or warehouse, ii can put an
other corporation into possession OF so
much of its lands as may be necessary
TO construct and maintain another
railroad. Indeed ii it can, under the
preteNt of regulating the use, GUST the com-
pany from any part OF its property, how
ever unimportant, no reason can be gwen
why it may not, dis a regulation, oust 1t
from its right of every yard, depot grounds,
tracks and stations and put other parties
in possession of them, for it holds and en-
ploys all of these for public use. So far us
the section requires railway companies
to let other persons in possession OF amy
portion oI their land without the cCmpen-
sation required by the constitution, 1t II
invalid.

Democratic Doctrine in Boston.

Speaker John G.. Carlisle, in n speech be.
fore the Bay State Club, in Boston, last
Saturday, gave ulterance TO sound, old-fash.
Toned States Rights doctrine. His speech
was not in the nature Of an argument fol
Democracy, but rather plain enunciaton OIL
the fundamental truths of the party which has
outlived and trumphed over all its adversaries
because its principles are those by which q
republic can alone be maintained
Mr.. Carlisle dwell with force upon the
distinctive Democratic principle of Local
selEgoverment and the limitation of federal
power by the Constitution, as the very
essence of Democratic truth.
On the question of the tariff Mr. Carlisle
said:
II am one of those who believe that it is
better 10 tax the people too little than to tax
them too much that ii is better to leave the
earnings of the people in their own hands
than TO exact them from them by law, and
then attempt to make compensation for the
wrong by extravagant expenditures for
public purposes, and by granting bounties
and subsidies to the people and hope that
before this administration closes il will have
the united support of the Democracy in its
efforts to secure the adoption of a just and
wise policy as regards it's revenue system"

> Iiw1aItimore and Ohio Deal.

The report that the control of the Balti-
more and Ohio Railroad is about to pass into
the hands of syndicate representing num-
Der of other railroads, is now said to be UNI
doubtedly true. 1t is stated by the friends of
Mr.. Robert Garrett that he has, in the trans
action, abundan,ly protected the interests Of
the city of Baltimore and the State of Mary
land, to both of which the railroad is greatly
indebted for material assistance at all times
in furthering its projects. Mr.. CARROTS rea-
son for seeking 10 relieve himself from the
responsibility of managing SO vast concern
is said TO be that he fears the intense mental
strain to which he is daily subjected may cost
him his life, as overwork was the cause of the
death of his father, John w. Garrett, and
other railroad Presidents.
Mr.. Garrett may have guarded the inter
ests of his native city and State as far as he
could in the transaction, but henceforth the
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, in alien hands,
will no longer control the State Legislature
and obtain any legislation desired. 1t seems
strange, too, that Mr.. Garrett could not find
some one identified with Maryland interests
into whose hands he could entrust the great
work which his father spent lifetime in
building up, His action, we believe, will
have some effect on the Constitutional Con-
vention soon to assemble. The indulgence
and favoritism shown to the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad as distinctive State enter
prise will not be shown to the railroad in
other hands.

LARGE SALES OF PERCHERoN AND TRoTTING
SToCK.-Messrs. VIM. T. Walters Il Co. had a
large sale of Percheron stock, near Govans-
town, on the 10th instant. Thirty-seyen animals
were sold and the total amount realized was
s35, 200, or an average of about 5000 each. Some
OF the animals are immense. An imported
brood mare, two years old and 1871 hands high
weighed 1850 pounds. E. II. Rowland, of Port
Deposit, bought the stallion Mahomet, 171S
hands, for 81, $50.

gray, 1871 hands, sired by imported Sultan,
weight l ZOO lbs, was sold to Garrett Amos, OF
Hartford county, for 81 500. Mr.. Amoss was ap.
plauded for his purchase, as the Marylanders
present did not want to see the splendid son OF
old Sultan taken out of the State.
Sultan IL. was pronounced by Mr.. Walters TO
he the finest Percheron horse in Maryland. His
sire, Sultan l., which was bought by Mr.. A. j.
Cassatt, of Pennsylvania, for $1,000, obtained
the first prize awarded by the French govern
nent two consecutive years before Mr.. Walters
purchased him. In the opinion of the best
judges In France Sultan was without superior
In all the qualities which combine to make a
perfect type of true Percheron.
Mr. Amos is not only to he congratulated up
on securing so fine an animal as Sultan H., but
deserves the thanks of the farming community
for his enterprise.
The Percheron is believed to be genuine
Arab, modified in form by the climate and the
rude services to which he had been for ages
subjected In France. 1t Is fact recorded in
history that the Crusaders brought back to
France from Palestine Arabian stations
the progeny of which were carefully preserved
intact.

animals was over g., 900 pounds The highest
